| Depends what you call expensive. Prices can differ from seeler to seller. I just bought a Verb +DL from SVP it cost about £3 the same one in a high street electrical shop £5. Let us know what you consider expensive. Supply and demand, not a lot of people are buying them as of yet and as such they are not produced inthe same quantities oas SL discs. |
| Let's see, build a new plant, design a new production line, R&D costs, limited market for an overpriced product, few years later, break even, prices will drop. Price a blu ray burner, player and media.

| Remember when blank cds came out? Not cheap at all Bruce |
| I was thinking they had been around for quite some time now, and that they're still so high in price, at least compared to SL discs. A bought one disc for £4. Now I though that that seemed quite a lot. One disc! What is a SL disc, like, less than 50p? Does DL DVD media cost a lot more for retail DVD video discs? |
| Most movies are dl so they can add all the crap,ads,etc. It also makes it harder to copy to a sl disc. Bruce |
